lyrics

Summers immortalized on mixtapes
A record of all my past regrets and mistakes
What I wouldn’t give to be young again
Why did I ever want to escape back then?

I’ve gotten better at distracting myself
I’m fine on my own, I don’t need anyone’s help
The weight of the world, or the hole in my heart
Doesn’t matter, when there’s everything else that I’ve got

But I don’t want to die alone

Two parts orange and two parts green
Athena and Aphrodite crawling under my skin
Is there evil inside me? Is this feeling a sin?
Do I do what I have to or just give in?

I just don’t want to die alone

Am I too old for love? Would it be such a crime?
They’re telling me to take up the rock and join the climb
Forget about yours when I’ve got mine
But train rides and bedtimes are the worst times

‘Cause I don’t want to die alone
